2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori(a)lab.ntt.co.jp>

commit dd6c26a66bdc629a500174ffe73b010b070b9f1b upstream.

Architectures that handle DMA-non-coherent memory need to set
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to make sure that kmalloc'ed buffer is DMA-safe: the
buffer doesn't share a cache with the others.
